ESPN is reporting that Los Angeles Clippers head coach Doc Rivers has been fined $25,000 for his post-game rant following the team's Game 5 loss on Tuesday.

quote:Rivers said the Clippers were "robbed" of the victory after a call went in favor of the Oklahoma City Thunder with 11.3 seconds left a "series-defining play."

On Wednesday, the NBA defended the outcome of the fourth-quarter play, when it appeared the ball went out of bounds off Reggie Jackson but the Thunder were awarded possession by the referees after video review.

Game 6 of the Clippers/Thunder series starts at 10:30pm EST Thursday night in Los Angeles, CA. OKC currently leads the series 3-2.
